What's most curious to me, Hunter, is that you seem to be putting yourself through the effects of a negative outcome before you've even made any effort to do anything which might cause them. Since you've, apparently, already "been rejected" in your mind, I see nothing further to lose and everything to gain by making an overture. Just go into the shop and tell the truth. Like: "I owe you an apology. I should've come in to say hello when I last saw you, but I was so smitten by the prospect of talking to you, I just didn't know what to do right then. So chickened out. Can we go out for lunch or something so I can make up for that momentary lapse of good manners?"

maybe i was unsure but she did seem nervous talking to me. She told her friend later on that she was disappointed that i didn't ask for her number earlier, 5 days later i saw her working in her shop walking past while she glanced out while i looked in, i should have waved but i wish i hadn't even looked as she was about 50ft away at the back of the shop.
It's beginning to eat away at me that i know where she works but i can't wait until i see her in a pub again, i had actually given up looking for somebody now in life but it's brought me heartache back again that i didn't think i'd ever experience again !"Why are you an atheist?"

OHNO, she's now got her sons birthday which she forgot about so the evening out is cancelled !!
Then i get loads of texts on my phone asking questions like ''BTW How old are you'' she's only 2 yrs older which 'aint a problem. Then she says on the phone after i rang her she's just had a year of hell and is just a bit wary, i thought god i think i've been down this road before listening to emotional baggage, i now don't hold out much hope after this even though she says she likes me.

Hmm, not a good sign that she forgot her son's birthday!!! LOL
But don't worry I'm sure you guys will reschedule, and I don't think she has emotional baggage. I just think she may have had a hard time and is leary of things..Every one has a right to be cautious and she's just being upfront about it in the beginning. But if her saying that bothers you then I think you should find someone else.
Edit: everyone is going to be cautious when they have kids and get into a new relationship, if she's been hurt before then she's going to take things slow. But if that's not what your looking for then you need to find soemone else, but good luck on that.If you can't handle the thorns, don't crave the rose!!

thanks Rosebud, she said she wouldn't have given me her number if she wasn't interested, we talked for 25 mins and she had to go out to a darts match with no make-up on, lol
I'm going to leave it and see if she calls i won't pressure her and leave the ball in her court so to speak !
